tutorial :)

i have read so many great tutorials and i have tried to write a few myself. now i thought that i would try again!

during a walk in the forest with my dogs i was thinking really hard to get some new craft ideas. as you know, i love acorns and found some acorn hats laying on the ground in the forest, took them home and there i made some natural/wooden acorns that i am going to use as necklaces.

1. poke a whole in the middle of the acorn hat so that you make a hole to put the hook. if you don´t have a premade hook (i used small ones that you usually use on frames) you can make small hooks with wire.

2. put your hook through the hole and fill it with glue. if you have glue that become see-through when it dries you don´t have to worry if there is some acess.

3. take your wooden bead (i used a light green one i had to make a really green acorn) and put it in the glued hole. try to get the tip of the hook to go in one of the beads holes to make the whole thing more sturdy.

This is a great idea for a pendant! wonderful tutorial as well.. Bulb in Blue is a site for creative ideas and crafts and we would love to get in contact with you about featuring your tutorial on our site: www.bulbinblue.com- our e-mail is blueteam@bulbinblue.com if you are interested!

for the love of everyday

" Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn rom you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. Let me hold you while i may, for it may not always be so. One day i shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in the pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all in the world, your return.
